When the "Environmental Girl" entered Gaza again, why was it attacked by drones in Tunisia? Why does the Tunisian government dare not admit that there was an attack?
In order to expose Israel's crime of illegally blocking Gaza, "Environmental Girl" Tunbery recently organized a rescue fleet to enter Gaza again, which attracted the attention of the international community and brought danger to herself. In June this year, Tunbery organized a small rescue ship to try to deliver aid supplies to Gaza, but was intercepted and detained by Israeli troops in international waters about 100 nautical miles from the coast of Gaza. After signing the consent form, Tunbery and his group were expelled by Israel.
I didn't expect that in less than three months, Tunbery made a comeback. This time, she joined hands with the international humanitarian aid fleet "Global Sumud Fleet" to organize a large-scale fleet of dozens of rescue ships, and was loaded with humanitarian rescue materials such as food raised by people from all over Europe. If the last time Tombelli went to Gaza was just a personal fight, then this time she came with the goodwill of European folks towards Gaza and condemnation of Israel.
Of course, nothing unexpected happened to Tunbery's fleet. But this time, there was no closer to Gaza, but an attack occurred in Tunisia.
According to media reports, on September 7, the fleet where Tombelli arrived at the Tunisian port, which was warmly welcomed by local people. There were even dozens of ships and hundreds of activists joining their fleet.
As a result, in the early morning of September 9, one of the ships of the fleet was attacked by drones in Tunisian waters. The good news was that all six people on the ship were not in danger of their lives.
According to the fleet personnel, one of their main ships was attacked by drones in the port of Tunisia, and the main deck caught fire and damaged.
It should be pointed out that as an Arab country, Tunisia has always firmly supported Palestine on the Palestinian-Israeli issue, so this attack obviously will not be done by Tunisia. However, surprisingly, Tunisian officials publicly refuted the statement of the Tunbery fleet, insisting that no drone was found and believed that the source of the explosion came from the ship, and the reason may be due to technical failures, and the reports on the drone attack "had no factual basis."
But members of the Tunbery fleet then posted live videos on social media, which clearly showed that the attacked ship was attacked and exploded by burning objects falling from the air. After the ship exploded, the fleet members could still be heard screaming "fire" and "help".
Why is Tunisian officials unwilling to admit that there is a drone attack?
This can indirectly understand their political considerations from the reactions of Tunisian people. For example, Albanis, a Tunisian-born UN Human Rights Council, mentioned that if the drone attack was confirmed to be launched by Israel, it would be an "attack and aggression against Tunisia and Tunisia's sovereignty."
In the face of such direct violation of Tunisia's sovereignty, they have no reason to sit idly by, but the Tunisian government obviously does not want to directly break out with Israel, so they repeatedly emphasized that "there is no factual basis" and further investigation is needed.
As long as the Tunisian government delays time and waits for the Tunbery fleet to leave, the next headache will be Israel. In the face of such a large fleet, the international community is also paying great attention. Even if the Israeli army really wants to take action, it must consider international viewing.
